please post your full config.
I would also check your firewall config (iptables/nftables) on the system to see
if it's blocking the connection.
Also make sure you have a route to the destination IP (you probably have a
default route that does this, but it is something we've run across)
are you seeing any startup errors? or config errors (start rsyslog manually with
rsyslogd -N1
if none of that helps, we may need to get debug info, but start with the simpler
stuff. Normally this 'just works' so I'd guess that it's a syntax error
somewhere in the config.

I hope this is the right place to ask this question. I have a basic
rsyslog setup sending udp data from a Debian 11 host to a remote server.
At the bottom of my rsyslog.conf file I have:
*.* @x.x.x.x
Logs are being sent to /var/log/daemon.log, /var/log/syslog, etc. so I am
not worried about that. The problem is that on the device itself I do not
see any logs leaving the device. Nor do I see them at the firewall
(x.x.x.x). I have used netcat to see if the remote port is open and
reachable and it is. I have re-install rsyslog and restarted it. Nothing
seems to work.
However, when I issue the logger command:
logger -n x.x.x.x -P 514 -d "This is a test"
I see that data. What else can I check with my rsyslog setup? Thank you.
